The Happy Man in the Red Chamber

After dragging Zhen's family for a month, Jia's mother finally said that if it was possible for a day, it would be just an hour or two.But while opening this mouth, she also thought of something even more wonderful.

Wang's belly is getting bigger day by day, it looks like a pair but feels like one.Even if we invited experts in gynecology from the palace, we were not sure.In this situation, Mother Jia looked at the news from the Zhen family and decided to find someone to give Mrs. Wang medicine in private.In any case, they are also descendants of dragons and phoenixes, so I'm afraid it will be bad if they use medicine.At the same time, they sent people down to Jinling, and built a small house in their own village, and sent people to guard it there, and sent them there when they gave birth here.Although it is said that in the future, he will treat this as his own grandson, but in the final analysis, the blood relationship cannot be wrong.

An Lan and Jia She watched these things happening steadily one by one, they just pretended not to know.

The day after Jia Amnesty found out about it, he went to find Jiang Cheng.Afterwards, this matter went to the imperial case in the imperial study.He didn't know what the emperor's plan was, he was going to get an errand to leave this house after the new year.Even if it is to blame, it cannot be blamed on him.At that time, at most, the title will be cut off.

Jia Amnesty didn't care, and An Lan didn't care.She couldn't figure out why Jia Zhu was studying hard when she was in Jia Baoyu, but she became a mascot when she came to Jia Baoyu.Now it seems that there is no reason why Jia's mother will not only regard Jia Baoyu as a mascot, but even as an ancestor in the future.It's just that the weird child in Wang's belly may not have that blessing.

After the new year, the April Wang family started to welcome the spring.The yard of the second room was bustling with activity, people who were boiling water, people looking for people, people carrying cloth, etc. were coming and going in a hurry.An Lan stayed by the side for a while, looked at the sky and said that Yingchun was young, and the one who kissed her now was afraid that she would not be able to fall asleep.Thinking of the things that had been arranged earlier, Mother Jia also felt that it would be wrong for An Lan to stay here all the time, so she let her go back.

Mrs. Wang was in pain until midnight, before she saw the birth of a child.Just don't know why, not long after the baby was born, she was in severe pain again.Wen Po yelled that there was another one, but she had already passed out from the pain.

At this time, twins are unlucky, and only a dragon and a phoenix can be auspicious.If there are two boys, one will have to be given up.Wealthier families will be sent to other places to be raised, but they will not be included in the genealogy.When Wang woke up, she was a little groggy.Just looking at the two little buns next to him, and asking the nurse who was serving beside him, he was about to cry.

"Madam, don't cry, you can't cry in this confinement. The old lady said that the child will be sent to Jinling after the wife brings it to the full moon." Zhou Rui's family looked at their master and sighed.But thinking of the auspiciousness at that time, he immediately changed his tone: "If you want me to say, my wife is still blessed. This eldest brother was born with a piece of jade in his mouth."

"Bring it to me and have a look!" Hearing that one of her two twins was born with jade in her mouth, Wang suddenly became energetic.

Looking at the jade that has been wrapped in red cloth, it is less than the size of an adult's thumb, and two lines of characters are engraved on it and inlaid with gold filing.

"Don't lose, don't forget, Shanshou Yongchang..." Looking at these four words, although Wang didn't understand the principle, she understood the meaning.She hugged her son who was wrapped in a red brocade furoshiki and tied tightly with a yellow ribbon, and made out with her son.Then carefully put Yu back into the child's swaddle.Looking again at the youngest son wrapped in a blue satin bundle, he sighed.Looking at Zhou Rui's family: "But married a name?"

"The older one, Xing Er, is called Baoyu by the old lady. The younger one is called Jia Yan after the younger generation." Zhou Rui's family said that Jia's mother and Jia Zheng settled down after the two children were born. Wang listened Nod.Looking at her younger son, she wiped the corners of her eyes to suppress her tears.After all, her natal family is very prosperous. Although it is not as famous as the current Duke's Mansion, after all, the four families also advanced and retreated together.Lover of her natal family's face, this youngest son will not be bad in the future.If it's worse, she'll just use the dowry to make up for it.

Thinking of this, she felt relieved.Then she asked about the surrounding situation, only to hear that the old lady made Mrs. Zhao an aunt, and she snorted bitterly.Looking to the side of Zhou Rui's family: "Since the old lady made the decision, I don't have anything to say. I found four sets of old clothes for two winters and two summers before my pregnancy, as well as clothes from when I first became pregnant. , and sent it to her. In addition, give her two brightly colored satin..." At this point, Wang thought for a while: "Add 20 taels of silver and give it to her. Right now, the master likes it. Come on, it’s not easy for me to be that bad person during confinement, is it?”

Zhou Rui's family nodded, and handed hot water to Mrs. Wang: "The grandma and grandma chose four, and they were made according to the money of the young master of the serious government. Because of this, the elder is still angry!"

Speaking of Jia Amnesty dropping the teacup because of this, Zhou Rui's family smiled triumphantly.When Wang heard this, he also laughed.She thought, her son looked like he would be blessed in the future.As long as you wait a little longer, this mansion is not her son's.

Thinking of this, the worry that the youngest son would be sent away has almost dissipated.

Jia Amnesty did leave in a huff because Jia's mother threw a tea bowl at the newborn child.But An Lan was a good person. She held the tea bowl and looked at Jia Mu and Jia Zheng with a smile on her face: "Master has a childish temper, and it's not that the old lady doesn't know that he is..."

As she said that, she lowered her eyebrows and smiled: "Let me tell you, four is probably not enough. Why are there two children? Even if the little nephew is going to be sent to the ancestral home in Jinling in the future, after all, he still needs to be nursed, right? Not as good as one child with four children." Well, I was thinking about our master, and I am afraid that he is not willing to send brother Yan away. After all, my brother's family has an eldest son, whether this time there will be one or two sons, or what. Besides, the old lady has already said , that Baoyu is a man of good fortune, no matter what he will not be rushed away by his brother."

Jia Zheng listened comfortably to what she said, but Jia's mother could hear the irony in it.She said earlier that the reason for sending away the third child was to prevent the third child from rushing to Baoyu's arrival.After all, this delivery is for a child, and now it is divided into two, what should I do.But saying that, blocked all her previous words.Jia Mu frowned: "You are so young, how do you understand the things here? That's enough... let's settle this matter!"

An Lan looked down at Mother Jia from the corner of her eyes, took a sip of tea and put down the tea bowl: "Since the old lady said so, I still have something to do. A few days ago, Mrs. Jiang Taibao invited me to visit her I was holding a tea party at home, but I was just worried about my younger siblings, so I was delayed. It happens to be free in the afternoon, so I have to make amends after all."

Listening to the soft tone, Jia Mu waved her hand.But Jia Zheng didn't leave. He looked at Jia's mother and thought for a while: "Baoyu was born with a blessing. Originally, this kind of thing happened in a family like ours. I'm afraid it's not enough to support him. He was born well. I looked at him. It’s much stronger than the newborn one. If he’s not weak, let’s keep the third child! Although it’s said that the twins rushed a little, they might just stay like this.”

Mother Jia patted the table: "Confused...how did this survive? Whether Baoyu's piece of jade can be kept right now is still a matter!"

Watching his mother slapping the table, Jia Zheng shrank his neck and lowered his head without speaking.Jia Mu looked at him and sighed: "This jade has always belonged to either the prince or the prince's grandson. It should be said that if there is something like this, we will wait for the royal suspicion if we have such a thing. I originally thought, If the two children happened to be Zhu'er, it would be nothing if they were both. But if Baoyu was blamed, what should we do? Don't you know what your elder brother is? The most important thing right now is It's better to send the third brother away, maybe it will be a care in the future."

Hearing what his mother said, Jia Zheng became worried.He trembled with his lips: "What should I do... What should I do? Is it going to be sent up? The nursing woman said that she might not be able to leave her body for a moment. Would she die if she was sent there? "

Jia Mu sighed: "Okay... I have my own opinion on this matter, you go and see her!"

"Hey!" Hearing what his mother said, Jia Zheng nodded and left.Jiamu sat on the chair. The jade did not belong to Baoyu, but to the child who crawled out of Wang's belly.However, thinking of the origin of this piece of jade and the precious jade, Jia's mother still made a decision immediately.For nothing else, if it is Baoyu's, the Zhen family will definitely help to stay.But if it belongs to Jia Yan, then it can only be sent up.

The mother and son were worried about each other, while An Lan returned to the room and sat talking to the nanny, "But did you find out about the child?"

"I figured it out!" At this time, it was Mi Yue who was serving in the open.She respectfully answered An Lan's question: "The jade stone does have some supernatural powers, and the owner should know about it. The Nuwa stone was the last stone left unused when Nuwa mended the sky. Later, it turned into Lord Huai* Wu Zhiqi was later suppressed by Dayu. But in the final analysis, he is an acquired spiritual being. With the merit of Nuwa mending the sky, many stones have auras in the place where he was originally sitting. Later, after the conferment of the gods, the Heavenly Palace was erected. The stone platform of that year was taken into the Heavenly Palace. The stone at present must not be the Nuwa Stone. But why it is called the Nuwa Stone, I have a small guess. Maybe it can answer."

"speak."

"The little one inspected the stone carefully, and it is indeed somewhat psychic. But in the final analysis, his spiritual consciousness is not yet open, and he is afraid that he is not as good as even the lowest demon. But the monks and others are very cautious. Throwing it into the mouth of a crying baby, I am afraid that there is some reason for it. I speculate that the baby is born with a spiritual body and has extraordinary aptitude. However, the Jia family said that the stone belonged to the Zhen family, and none of the monks interfered.

The small conjectures are: [-]. The stone may have something to do with the stone platform back then, so it may not be a stone on it;That monk must be aiming at the baby.That monk's practice is not as good as mine.Right now, either he wants to refine the magic weapon after the stone has lost its aura, or he wants to disturb the mortal world and intercept the cause and effect. "

"Refining magic weapon... intercepting cause and effect..." An Lan tapped her fingers on the table, thinking about the content in the original book.As mentioned in it, the queen mother's birthday needs congratulatory gifts.At the same time, he also said that if the Jing Huan fairy got it well, they and other little fairies could also get some benefits.Right now, they are afraid that they will not be able to go to heaven.The cultivation base is still higher than the secret medicine, which means that there is no ascension at all.If you don't even have the top three flowers, how can you enter the 33-day outer space?

Thinking of this, she snorted coldly.Since it is a world of self-cultivation, and since it uses most of the settings of the world she was familiar with, it means that the wild old sayings are correct.

Thinking of this, she tapped the desktop: "Secret!"

"Master!" It was a woman wearing a veiled veil who appeared in a long gown of azure after rain, with a jasper-like flute hanging from her waist.Her long hair was neatly tied up with a white jade crown. An Lan didn't look at her but thought about it: "Go and find out, what's going on with the ascetics in this world. Why do I feel more and more confused the more I listen, 33 days away This is where the Heavenly Court is. In the final analysis, no one can enter without transcending the tribulation and ascending. How come two aptitudes that are not as good as yours can still get in touch with the fairies and intercept the current karmic secrets."

"Yes!" Mi didn't say much nonsense, and disappeared into the air.An Lan looked at Yuemao on the side: "You find a baby of the same age and similar appearance to replace that child. Since the opportunity is good and the aptitude is good, there is no need to waste it. Bring it into the inner workshop and close the outer atmosphere. Live the rest of the life Let’s talk about it in a year and a half.”

"Yes!" Mother Yue was just using the appearance and identity of that woman back then, after all, she was just a refinement loyal to the owner of Qixiu Workshop.

Jia Amnesty dropped the bowl, slipped around outside and returned to the mansion.Seeing An Lan sitting on the kang, drinking tea while looking at the bamboo slips.He sat down on the other side and knocked on the table.An Lan looked up at him, and burst out laughing: "Why are you so angry? It's just four nannies, or seven or eight, so what?"

"It's an obvious attempt to seize the throne... Didn't you see it?" Jia She snorted. Things were not going well for him recently.The position I originally wanted was rejected by others, and the emperor even approved a Zhu Zhu who was good at raising a child at home; the most disliked one was that he had another son, and he raised a son who didn't know who it was. The wild species is a treasure; things that should have been low-key, now seem to be going on a big way.How can he not be angry!

An Lan gestured for Liuli to serve hot tea.She smiled and pushed the tea to Jia Amnesty: "Have a cup of tea first!"

Jia Amnesty glanced at her, picked up the teacup and used the lid to stir the tea leaves a few times, then put it down.Put your hands on your knees, and sit upright: "You are going to leave in the future, so it really has nothing to do with you. You don't care much about which side you are in."

His words were full of irony.An Lan lowered her head and smiled gently: "The Huajian School has always been used to being independent, so it's a predestined relationship to fall into this situation where it's difficult to distinguish between big and small. In the final analysis, it's up to the onlookers to know."

Jia Amnesty turned his head to look at her, his gaze was like a torch.An Lan looked at him and pushed the tea bowl: "Drink the tea first!" There was a laziness in her voice, and she leaned limply against the cabinet behind: "She wants four nannies, but it's only once a month." Eighty taels of money per month. Even counting food, it is only eight hundred taels of money. If the calculation is greedy, a tael of silver per person is only four taels of silver. You are on the head, and you have lost your sleeves , It's just that people say that you, an uncle, can't even give up this little money. Not to mention being stingy for no reason, there will be other hats to put on in the future. It's better to just let them go.

When the child came over, you didn't stop him, and the matter on the emperor's side became a certainty even if there was no blocker.In the future, the house, the yard...all the forgiven and the unforgiven have been stamped to be put into the inner treasury.What's the use of being angry?Anyway, how much you eat, use, or take is not yours.It's not you who they want in the future. "

"But in the end, I was the one who was charged." Jia Amnesty picked up the tea bowl angrily, took a sip and threw it on the table.

An Lan smiled helplessly. For the first time, she felt that this man was so stupid.She shook her head: "Do you know why the emperor doesn't let you enter the court?"

"Why?" Jia Amnesty was very puzzled by this, but women always have their channels.

"You are in charge of the Rongguo Mansion today, but after all, the old lady was once a confidant of the emperor. Otherwise, back then, she would not have married your father who was not a filial wife. Can you tell me about this kind of thing? Well, the old lady may not be able to find someone to reveal the message. How many families of the same level in the capital do not know about the disputes in the mansion?"

An Lan said with a mocking smile: "To put it bluntly, this Rongning Street may be the source of the biggest joke in the history of high-ranking officials in the capital. But right now, you are the owner of this family... Everyone knows that you are the master. The second room Whatever it is, you have to bear it.”

"But the old lady is not dead yet, and this family is inseparable." Jia She heard this and thought it over carefully.The old emperor said that he could not have any information about Jia's mother, including the child.Then, if something goes wrong in the future, you will need a top tank anyway.My unlucky first-class general has become ready-made.

He sneered, looked at An Lan and waited for An Lan's reply.

An Lan blinked, picked up her tea bowl and warmed it up with internal force, then blew on it and sipped it lightly.Slowly raised his eyes and looked at him: "Actually, there are ways, it just depends on your reluctance."

"What are you willing to give up, what are you not willing to give up?" Jia She frowned slightly and looked at An Lan, An Lan tilted her head and put down the tea bowl and slid her finger on the edge of the blue and white porcelain bowl: "Right now we live in Rongxi Hall, so to speak, we are the masters of this house. But In fact, the money is not in my control, and the family is not in your control. The Zhuangzi outside, the old lady is the first to call on the old lady when the year comes. It doesn’t matter, it’s all about money anyway. But to tell the outside world, we don’t have any It’s not true, and no one will believe it.”

Jia She lowered his brows and thought for a while, then rolled his eyes: "That's true. The younger siblings are confinement, and the old lady is taking care of this house recently. Maybe you've been here for a year and you have to have a charter." It is."

An Lan looked up at him, and smiled with curved lips: "General Jia is very scheming, and I have to pay a price for doing things."

"You know everything you can know about me, and you know what you can't know about me."

Hearing these two sentences, An Lan smiled: "There is a woman under my family who met a heartless man, but she became pregnant. It's a boy, and she simply wants to find a good family. I don't know... How much does the general say?" What does a concubine think? If he wants, even that little wife, I can make one for the general."

Jia She looked at An Lan, that gorgeous face was very nice.It's just that the smile on the corner of the mouth makes people look a little unclear.He pondered for a while: "If you're just a bastard, it doesn't matter. But for the matter of increasing the family tree, this business is not very equal."

An Lan lowered her head and looked at the bracelet on her wrist.Let the bracelet slide on the white wrist: "One tael of silver for a chicken and a penny for a chicken are not worthwhile. Look, it belongs to both buyers and sellers."

"Lian'er is my son-in-law, and he will be my heir in the future." Jia She pondered for a moment, making sure that the other party would not do too much.

"Of course!" An Lan nodded: "I haven't taken a liking to these rotten things from the Jia family."

"I don't want the little wife, it's just the outhouse of the dead mother." Jia Amnesty nodded, and now the main thing is Jia Lian.

After getting what she wanted, An Lan pursed her lips and smiled, picked up the tea bowl and respected Jia Amnesty.After drinking it in one gulp, Jia Amnesty watched her substitute tea for wine, and also drank his own tea.
